So I made mention of my MJLJ in a few threads as of late which has seemed to generate some interest in my build/progress (?).
A little back ground on me: I have over 10 years of electronics/electrical trouble shooting and assemblyexperience form both high school, and the Coast Guard where I was an Avionics Technician. This is why I had no problem assembling the MJLJ unit. However, I am not a computer guy and programming is proving to be a HUGE PITA. The build: MJLJ uses EDIS which is a Ford distributorless electronic ignition system. The information for this part is available at http://picasso.org/mjlj/ To use the unit you will need a 36-1 toothed gear for the crank and a VR sensor. I am including pics of my pieces. Here would be a good place to show your prowess in programming as I am lost. it seems that my USB--> serial adaptor is not working, or it could be the unit. More to come. Post pics here for discussion. Pics are of the toothed gear installed and of the pully with it mounted separate. Attached thumbnail(s) Attached image(s) |

Dr. Dave, I am always appreciative of any info. I hope to get to that point, but I still can not resolve the comms issue between my puter and the box. I need to get a serial cable and try the desk top.
Thanks for you info (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

I need to get a serial cable and try the desk top. Thanks for you info (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Serial is the easiest for sure but, I am using a USB to serial with mine. It isn't perfect but, it works. First, make sure that you have a straight through serial cable and not a null modem. Check out the MS sight for their work around with USB. They've been able to set up the com port to help. Also, if you get desperate, there are PCMCIA to serial adaptors for you're card slot on the laptop. I know NewEgg has them. Dave |
